Now I regularly listen in wonder as to how fast the likes of auctioneer greats such as David Leggatt (UA), David Tomlinson (H&H) and Paul Gentry (Newark) rattle their way through sale day, but having stumbled across these clips of world champion sellers, I reckon our UK greats have some way to go!!
My personal favourite has to be 1963!!

Thanks for the link. What surprised me is that while the auctioneers talked very fast, they were not achieving a very rapid sales rate. Most were doing two lots per minute or less.
You should hear the tobacco auctioneers!
I an freelance antiques auctioneer, but I have done some livestock, cars, houses etc.
